Instead of leaving your key signing up to your friends, PGP could
benefit from a policy-based signature. You could come up with any
number of policies:
o This keyholder is a Mason/Scout/Rotarian.
o This keyholder is a Catholic/Mormon/Lutheran/Quaker.
o This keyholder paid $X to sign their key (where X is a number large
enough that key abandonment has consequences).
o This keyholder has $Y in escrow, to be paid out under some
circumstances.
o This keyholder has identified themselves to a Notary Public. A
photocopy of the identification is on file.
o And last but not least: this keyholder publishes their key's
signature weekly in the Sunday New York Times.
